Namco's Japanese branch today launched two websites related to the company's two more complete Nintendo DS titles, Pac-Pix and Mr. Driller. Both sites feature screens and artwork of the games in progress, showing off how the two games will utilize the unique features of the DS hardware.

Pac-Pix in particular has changed slightly from its incarnation shown the Electronic Entertainment Expo back in May. The art style has been altered, and the upper screen, once relegated to simply a data display, is now used for gameplay. Players can send their drawn Pac-Man characters up through tunnels on the upper screen to grab fruit for extra points.
